Finally, A Word from Our Admin

Please consider a generous paid subscription to this SubStack for 2024. It takes a lot of work to maintain the quality of the material in these posts and it cannot be done without the financial support of readers like you.

The reality of things is that investigative journalism is woefully undervalued by the click-bait, ratings driven media, particularly human rights journalism about people the world would rather look away from. But that is where journalists like Hollie McKay become so important to the global narrative. People who look at wars from all sides, however inconvenient, to tell the truth about the human cost of conflict are precious vessels in observing mankind who are worth supporting. They frankly need financial encouragement to keep publishing stories that are important to the human condition, but just not important enough for mainstream media outlets. Your paid subscription helps send a message that this type of reporting matters.

Coming in 2024 on Hollie’s SubStack, you’ll see stories about veterans making the transition to find inner peace, reports about fissures in international alliances, and get insights into linkages of politics and terror you might not know exist between various parts of the world. It’s worth your while to read and support.

Thank you for your consideration. Best wishes for the Holidays and may your New Year be Peaceful and Prosperous.
